Either way, back on track...I don't see the prices of the used market going down any time soon. And, having just walked into a Jeep dealership the other day, they had two '18 model Rubicons on the floor...one JK and one JL...there was a $10k difference in them

Anyway, the same JK we bought in '14 was marked up $12k more for the '18 JL. I'll pass...but I do see them starting to appear on the roads, so they're selling.
JL prices will settle in 18 months. I suspect that JKs will hold value for years to come, just as TJs did for the first 5+ years after the JK was introduced. But five years from now, value will take a moderate plunge.
